Because eventually I want to run a web hosting/design business and I think it's cheaper to re-invent the wheel (you learn a helluva lot mroe too) then pay $300+ month for decent, reliable hosting (I say $300+/month because my company is also going to be hosting an extremely high band width site in the near future).
So get a box in a co-location which is completely under your control. You can set up the webserver, email server etc yourself.
You can either get a service where they run the servers and you just subscribe to it or you can get a service where you provide the machine and all they do is put it in the racks, hook it up to power and the Internet.
Either way **IS** better than running it on dynamically assigned addresses!
Completely agreed, and your second option is very nice indeed.
I just wish I could buy a static IP for less then $300/month!
